‘Huh?’
She smiled. ‘Isn’t that remarkable?’
Dapo was astonished. It would be remarkable if only it were true. ‘But, how could that be? Doctor Collins said...’
‘That I could never have children, right?’ she interjected gently. ‘He was wrong.’
He laid a hand over her tummy as though expecting to feel something. With the other hand, he brushed her cheek. ‘Honey, are you sure?’
She nodded and smiled. He hadn’t spoken to her so tenderly in a long while. ‘It’s confirmed.’
Letting out a long, loud laugh, Dapo hugged her. ‘I never thought...’ his voice trailed off, as he looked pensive. ‘Now that I think back, we never bothered to get a second opinion after receiving Dr Collins’ report almost five years ago.’
‘I did honey. I got God’s opinion and I chose to believe His report.’
She leaned forward and kissed him, feeling awed at the life growing within her; a life that nullified the report which had previously declared her barren.

LifeChoice novels: An intriguing world of Christian fiction
Women worth their weight in gold,
From deep within, their true essence unfolds.
Coming out of the rough, in bounds and leaps,
With beauty that fades not and by no means skin deep.
-I. Izegbuwa
In a compelling mix of romance, suspense and timeless values, LifeChoice offers an exciting ride with fictional heroines whose substance does not lie in their perfection, but in the triumph of their recreated human spirits. Our heroines have their fair share of fears, challenges and mistakes. Yet ultimately, it is that display of inner beauty that sets them apart as the finest among women.
